Bulls El Puerto de Santa María

The province of Cádiz has a long bullfighting tradition, in fact there are indications that bullfighting as it's known today, afoot, began here; and also has one of the largest number of bullrings of the country. The number of bullfighting fairs and festivals to choose from is enormous, highlighting the Jerez Horse Fair, with international importance.

Cádiz town doesn't have bullring (the last one was closed in 1976 after having been scene of executions in the Civil War and was demolished), so the province takes center stage. This is the case of El Puerto de Santa María. As Joselito El Gallo said in his day, "who has not seen bulls in El Puerto, does not know what an afternoon of bulls is". In the locality you can breathe bullfighting art and tradition in abundance.
